Officer Down! - ADF Operation Alpha

The Spacelane Journal Reporter: Welcome today to a special interview! I have with me the acting commander of the Amamake Defence Force who would like to share the details of their special CONCORD led initiative and some recent operations into the lawless areas of low security space. Good morning, Commander Spectre!

Amamake Defence Force Commander Spectre: Hi.

TSJR: Could you give us an idea of what the Amamake Defence Force is and what purpose it is intended to serve?

Spectre: Well, we are a CONCORD sponsored group that was created to take back parts of lowsec that have been ravaged by massive amounts of violence and destruction. Since every operation needs a starting point, we began with our first operation taking place in and around the system of Amamake.

TSJR: Is Amamake a bad system? I must admit that I have never left our offices in Dodixie...

Spectre: You will never encounter a more wretched hive of scum and villiany.

TSJR: So your goal is to destroy those that cause crime and violence in the system and its region?

Spectre: No. The ADF is a strictly non-violent group. Our officers are specially trained in all manners of non-violent solutions to violent problems. Most are equiped with special electronic warfare equipment that will render any offending ships and their weapons useless until they withdraw from the battlefield.

TSJR: I am told that you brought some recordings with you of how your first operation went? Could we see some of it firsthand?

Spectre: Yes. It must be told that this footage is graphic and disturbing. There are images of violence and we lost many good men...

Narrator: ﻿At 0219 New Eden Standard Time, the ADF entered Amamake local and began their operations:

Narrator: Suddenly, many ships are spotted in the asteroid belt. The officers respond again with full force but are quickly overwhelmed by the opposing combatants.

﻿[ 02:42:44 ] Spectre3353 > Halt! In conjunction with The Amamake Peace Accord of 58177 we, the Amamake Defense Force, demand that you cease your aggressions and retreat from the field of battle immediately!﻿Narrator: Outlaw ships begin to swarm everywhere.

The feed quickly cuts out as a volley of missiles slams into the ADF ship that is recording the action.

TSJR: That was quite intense, Commander. What was the final result of the first ADF operation?

Spectre: *looks away and tries to stay composed before replying* We lost many good officers that day. Some of them were barely more than boys... but rest assured. We will be back. The ADF will be back...
